Back from Mesa Verde and filing my pictures, there is this:
Wall in high alcove, Mesa Verde, May 2014, by John Fleck
More impressive to me, in some ways, than the big stuff. Eight centuries ago, some people went to a lot of trouble to climb up to that upper alcove and build a little wall. Maybe they built more. I don’t know.
For some reason, this really grabbed me. You’re right; sometimes it’s the little things left behind that are most interesting/moving. Thanks for sharing.
